Back to the Drawing Board - BTTF in 60 Seconds

This wasn't quite what I was expecting when I opened it, but it's pretty well done anyways.  Could have used some more lines from the movie I thought.  Marty! It's not you, it's your drawings!

McFly 2015 Project must be crying right now - Nike Back to the Future shoes are real

mcfly2015.com - Did they make it happen?

I bet the guys from the McFly2015.com campaign from back in 2007-2008 are crying right now. Tears of joy of course.  Why?  Because The Shoes are real.  There was a campaign/petition back a few years ago started by the Maloof brothers (out of Montreal??).  Don't know where that went, nor what happened to them, but today Nike came through in realizing their dream.  Flurry of activity on the net after a mysterious video showing an animation of a room of shelves of the shoes appeared on YouTube.

And all the sneaker freaks out there? A tear and some drool too no doubt.  The ultimate retro/sought after/dreamt about shoe item of all time probably?

Nike MAG shoe - aka the McFly 2015 from Back to the Future II. What a time to be alive.

NiceKicks.com has been on top of it all day and has some good pics and previews of Mr. Michael J. Fox unveiling the shoe on Letterman later tonight. http://www.nicekicks.com/2011/09/nike-air-mag-officially-unveiled/  An auction and tons of proceeds to his Parkinson's foundation reported.  That's great.  What's next? Mattel and the hoverboard most would say.  It's not even 2015 yet.

For more BTTF nostalgia, not even related to the Nike shoes, check out what Doc Brown's been up to recently.... in Argentina for electronics Best Buy-style chain, Garbarino.

These things will be McFlying off the shelves!

Doc Brown's Doing a Great Job, in Argentina - Christopher Lloyd ad

Christopher Lloyd, auditioning for a role in an Argentinian commercial:
"Great to be here Señor Spielbergo!
So what's this movie about anyways?
A store in the future?
Wow, this is real wild movie you're making here.
I want in."

“¡Ay, ay, ay, no es bueno!”

It's almost inconceivable that Christopher Lloyd would reprise his role, for a commercial, but oh well...it's one of those hollywood-star-does-foreign-ad-we-never-see things, except that's no longer true thanks to YouTube.  Great, Doc - You're Doing A Great Job, Señor Doc.

-er LINE?

Something's going on here with this link but I'm not sure what ...

My Trilogy Kicks Your Trilogy's Ass - Back To The Future Jiggawatt shirts

Marked this to share awhile ago -- kinda funny.  For die-hard BTTF fans only I would think.

1.21 Jiggawatts?!

Chuck, Chuck, it’s your cousin Marvin Berry!

You know that new mashup you’re lookin’ for? Well listen to this:

DMC y’all, uh-huh uh-huh, Jigga.
Floor this shit, eighty-eight uh-huh.

Jigga What? Jigga Who?
Jigga What? Jigga Who?

…I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it.

Shirt design by Nerduo features a modern hip-hop slang spoof of Doc Brown's famous Back To The Future line.  Also featured is a counterpart shirt that exclaims to Star Wars fans - My Trilogy Kicks Your Trilogy's Ass.  Debateable of course.  Dem's fighting words at the least.

Worth posting if only for this crazy domain: http://1.21jiggawatts.com/

Chris finally goes Mac, just so he can use Time Machine for backups

"Marty!   Marty!   Your kids' photos, Marty!   We gotta go back in time to restore them before the system crashed, Marty!"

A scale replica DeLorean "Time Machine" compatible external hard drive.  OMG this is perfect.

I wonder if the transfer speed is 88Mb/sec?   Hmmmmm......
